Firstly, we study the age-gender distribution of the patients who have been confirmed positive of COVID-19 and those who have clinically recovered. The novel contribution of our work is an in-depth analysis of the clinical recovery of COVID-19 patients to estimate the recovery rate γ, which is a key parameter in the SIR (susceptible-infected-recovered) model for the disease [9] . Secondly, we use the number of patients recovering for a specific ∆t r as a count variable and fit multivariate linear regression models considering age and gender as independent variables, and ∆t r as the dependent variable.
